all of these are too obvious, but i'll check anyway. Vampire because it has nothing to do with fire or Middle Earth (unless there's a vampire in one of the books i haven't read yet). my other thought is dragon because it can fly and the others can't, unless, of course, you argue that the Balrog's wings were not metaphorical but were functional (which, of course, belongs on a different thread).
